Publisher's Synopsis

'Stunningly realistic . . . Dead Lucky announces Hutchinson as a writer to listen to about the love and pain in our society' Ben Halls, author of The Quarry

Think of being on your deathbed and thinking about all them nights where you said no, just 'cause you were a bit short on money. That's not how I wanted to live.

Jamie Fletcher loves his job as an embalmer at a busy funeral home in Openshaw, Manchester, but he's hiding a big secret - his gambling addiction has left him in eyewatering debt.

When his girlfriend Rebecca piles on the pressure to buy their first home together, he knows he has to do something to cover his tracks. And fast.

So Jamie does what he knows best - he walks up to the bookies and places the biggest bet of his life.

Tonight could be the night that changes everything. You just never know.
